Long file name attachments in Outlook for mac
Hi,
I have a user that is trying to imsert attachments into his outlook client on a power mac. If the document name is less than 28 chars (not including .file extension) then it is fine, if it is longer than this then it still inserts but generates its own name for the attachment (which is unreadable and has nothing to do with the original attachment name). However the content of the attachment remains unchanged. Can anyone help on this ?
cheers
Darren

Not so far. The new disk format HFS+ does support long filenames but it hasnt been enabled in the OS yet. OSX will support long filenames as far as i know as its based on unix.
